There's definitely a battle, so why don't we have a battle box? Should we give the battle it's own page? [[User:OTW|OTW]] 21:06, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

:It's just too large to be put in one sub section. There will be more content later. Secondly, it isn't really that useful. Why not get away from the automatism "this needs to have a battle box, because that's how we always did this"? The advantage of having this in an own article, is to put story points that are spread out over a dozen or so episodes into context and see how they relate to each other. The causes for the conflict and the participants' motivations are really far more interesting than another dry recitation of how many ships are involved and how many people die (which is only like 20 seconds screen time) -- [[User:Serenity|Serenity]] 21:13, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

I think until otherwise we should not even have this page. It's only implied right now. Anyone else? Shane (talk) 12:14, 12 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Plus, until it is developed further, there is nothing that isn't already said elsewhere. -- Serenity 12:20, 12 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

No battle box?
